    Default ESPN reporting Thigpen to Jacksonville

    I just read on another board that ESPN is reporting that the Chiefs are shopping Thigpen for a third round pick and Jacksonville is offering a 5th round pick

    http://forums.delphiforums.com/kcchi...es/?msg=2217.1

    Anyone else know anything?

    Thigpen is a QB with a lot of virtues. He's tough and can scramble. He's a good backup who could be an adequate starter for a lot of teams. Not his one, though.

    Anyone thinking that Thigpen has the physical skills or football smarts to lead a team to this playoffs didn't watch enough Chiefs games last season.
    Gee, I watched the games, and if our 4th quarter defense wouldn't have been a sieve, we would have won 6 or 7 more games. Like DBowe dropping the onsides kick, and then the defense went out and looked like deer in headlights. My gosh, that was all Thigpen's fault. Please trade him.
    The next game is the most important one of the season !!

    Don't forget about the bs ref calls as well. We might've beat the Jets if the refs were actually doing there job.

He did better than any other QB could do with these weapons..
    After he for sure regained the starter job after the bye week his passer rating was good. 76 is his season total and those first 3 games were horrible. One game was like 23 passer rating or something.

    Tyler Thigpen: Game Logs

    All in all. The guy had 18 TD to 12 INTs with this surrounding cast. We need him.

    Just like the article that came out earlier.
    NFL.com Blogs » Blog Archive A case for Tyler Thigpen «
    "Who threw more TD than SB winning Ben Rothlesburger, outstanding rookies Flacco or Matt Ryan?..........Tyler Thigpen!! But those guys had a good team. So why say Thig only won one game. Thig did what he could.

    You keep the guys that are good on your team people!

    I agree as long as the player is under contract. That is what muddies the water on this one a bit. He is a FA next year if I recall.

    Yeah, but I don't think he'll be an UFA if I recall.
